Like all good tyrants, the president is now in the business of telling us how we must feel
I wonder, what will be the punishment for not showing the requisite affection?
Here:
We must love each other, show affection for each other, and unite together in condemnation of hatred, bigotry, and violence. We must discover the bonds of love and loyalty that bring us together as Americans.

Snapshot of Trump job approval up to the exit of Steve Bannon
Bannon and Conway took over the campaign management just one year ago, and now Bannon is out as chief strategist. Trump is up +1 in the approval average since Charlottesville on the 12th. We'll see what happens now.
Pat Buchanan: Gov. McAwful goes full scalawag
Here at TakiMag:
Two years ago, Virginia Gov. Terry McAuliffe called the giant statues of Lee and “Stonewall” Jackson on Richmond’s Monument Avenue “parts of our heritage.” After Charlottesville, New York-born-and-bred McAuliffe, entertaining higher ambitions, went full scalawag, demanding the statues be pulled down as “flashpoints for hatred, division, and violence.” Who hates the statues, Terry? Who’s going to cause the violence? Answer: The Democratic left whom Terry must now appease. McAuliffe is echoed by Lt. Gov. Ralph Northam, the Democratic candidate in November to succeed McAuliffe. GOP nominee Ed Gillespie wants Monument Avenue left alone. The election is the place to decide this, but the left will not wait. ... Like ISIS ... the new barbarism has come to America. This is going to become a blazing issue, not only between but within the parties.
Kevin Williamson isn't just tone deaf to the political violence going on, he's oblivious to it
Here.
Just as he is oblivious to the rape of the South not just in that damned war but in Reconstruction, and counsels unemployed whites without college degrees today to just die already.
Republican refusals to denounce political violence on all sides proves once and for all that there isn't a dime's worth of difference between the two political parties.

Charles Mackay: Men think in herds, go mad in herds, but recover only one by one
"Men, it has been well said, think in herds; it will be seen that they go mad in herds, while they only recover their senses slowly, and one by one."
Vote the Will's Informed Electorate scam is (now?) owned by a Utah Republican named Brett Payne
A recent commenter noted that there has been a change in the registry information for vote the will dot org, from Arizona to Utah. Whereas previously the Registrant Name was private, now it is Brett Payne of Utah.
There could have been a sale involved, or it could be the same people with a new face and legal identity. The website looks retooled, too. Hard to say which. In any event . . .
A search of public records on Al Gore's amazing internet shows that Brett Payne is indeed a registered Utah Republican, as the commenter stated.
I'm sure this guy is doing nothing illegal.
It's just a slick operation, you know, slick like a snake. Millions of idiots will open their wallets for this guy just for the fleeting experience that someone out there cares about their opinion . . . for twenty bucks.
Do robots have feelings?
This guy must be laughing all the way to the bank!

"No free speech for fascists" is incoherent and Orwellian
Charles C. W. Cooke, here:
“No free speech for fascists” is an incoherent, almost Orwellian, position. Happily – and on a routinely “bipartisan” basis – the Supreme Court concurs.
Fascism is when companies get rich because the government made you buy their health insurance
"It's not fascism when we do it!"

And now this from The Ministry of Truth
No crime no matter how great can be committed opposing racism.
Trump et alia prejudice the case calling James Fields a murderer, making it almost impossible for him to get a fair trial
God help you when it's you. This might as well be North Korea. Everyone shut up and let a jury decide.

Trump gives pugilistic press conference, finally blames alt-left for Charlottesville violence and media for lying about it
Here:
"I do think there's blame on both sides," Trump said. "You look at both sides -- I think there's blame on both sides and I have no doubt about it and you don't have any doubt about it either. And if you reported it accurately, you would say."

Democrats are nuttier than Republicans by 2 to 1, and independents by nearly as much
Democrats believe in reincarnation, yoga, astrology, spiritual energy and the evil eye 176 to 87 for Republicans in a Pew Research study from 2009, a ratio of 2:1. So-called independents aren't far behind at 163 to 87, for a ratio of 1.87:1.
And when it comes to being in touch with the dead, ghosts and fortune tellers, the story is similar. Democrats buy this stuff over Republicans 163 to 81, also a ratio of 2:1. Independents beat Republicans 143 to 81, for a ratio of 1.76:1.
Apart from the greater prevalence of wacky beliefs among Democrats and independents generally, the results indicate that the much-vaunted independents are much more like the Democrats than they care to admit (nutty).

The country's become more liberal as "moderates" decline 21% since 1992
Gallup reported in January here that the country's moderates have declined from 43% in 1992 to 34% in 2016, a decline of nearly 21%.
At the same time the country's liberals have risen in number from 17% in 1992 to 25% in 2016, an increase of 47%.
Meanwhile conservatives are still stuck at 36%.
This means the country has become more polarized along the conservative-liberal axis as a huge part of the squishy middle has converted to the left.
My hunch is that the real story is that as the older generations have died off, what has been exposed is the more liberal elements of the Baby Boom generation and especially of their children and grandchildren, who were all indoctrinated in liberalism by the public schools, which were gradually taken over by the left after the 1960s.
I experienced this first hand in my high school in the early 1970s. I remember how two new young teachers freshly minted from college stuck out like sore thumbs compared with the old guard of my teachers. They wasted no time and immediately introduced us to the work of such luminaries as the Marxist Bertolt Brecht and the gay counterculture revolutionist Charles A. Reich, a teacher of both Bill and Hillary Clinton at Yale. Meanwhile I learned useful things from my lunkhead economics teacher, like how to do my taxes, but the textbook for the other parts of the class was the socialist Robert Heilbroner's The Worldly Philosophers. Fortunately for me, my American History teacher loved America and the US Constitution. His name was Walt Anderson. I think now he saved me.
I survived to become a conservative, but obviously, most of you didn't.
McCain favorability is up because everyone knows he's going to die soon, not because they like him
Gallup, here, reports him at 58% in August 2017, up from 53% two years ago.
Pure sympathy bump of 9.4%, but that's it. Reminds me of all those protester kids in Charlottesville swarming the car crash victims, hovering around taking picture after picture.
Alive John McCain sucks. And dead he still will.
